Top 40 of 2014: Meet The Fan Favorites of Round 3

Making it to round 3 of Fuse's Top 40 is no easy feat! The artists who've made it this far either dominated rounds 1 AND 2 or garnered so many votes in round 1 they came back as wildcards. Either way, they have YOU, the fans, to thank for it so keep voting!

Juicy J

Nicki Minaj

First Nicki's "Anaconda" video edged out Iggy Azalea's "Fancy" with Charli XCX, then in round 2 it stormed past A Great Big World and Christina Aguilera's "Say Something" video. In round 3 Nicki's up against Zedd and Hayley Williams' "Stay The Night' video.

Paramore

Paramore and Hayley Williams fans are (not surprisingly) showing up in droves for their pop-punk queen. Though Paramore's "Ain't it Fun" lost (not by much) to 5 Seconds of Summer's "She Looks So Perfect" in round 1, their votes were so crazy they're back as a wildcard in round 3, up against another wildcard, A Great Big World and Xtina's "Say Something" video. Hayley fans helped keep her and Zedd's "Stay the Night" video in Top 40 this whole time, too!

A Great Big World

A Great Big World's fans showed up early to help their video for "Say Something" with Xtina beat out Sia's "Chandeliers" in round 1. They couldn't fight off Nicki's "Anaconda" in round 2, but they put up such a good fight that their vote totals made them a wildcard, back in round 3, up against Paramore's "Ain't It Fun" video.

Christina Aguilera

Christina's cosign (and guest vocals) helped A Great Big World break into the music scene with "Say Something," and her devoted fans most definitely helped in beating Sia's "Chandelier" in round 1 and garner enough votes in round 2 to come back as a wildcard, despite losing to Nicki Minaj "Anaconda."

5 Seconds of Summer

You already know 5SOS fans are crazy-dedicated so it's no surprise they really showed up in round 1 to help the boys' "She Looks So Perfect" take down pop-punk staple Paramore's "Ain't it Fun." They couldn't take Katy Perry's fans in round 2, but their votes were enough in round 1 to bring them back as a wildcard in round 3, up against Charli XCX's "Boom Clap" video.

Jessie J, Ariana & Nicki

Nicki and Ariana fans are putting in double time, as they're helping Jessie J fans keep the trio's "Bang Bang" going. Pitbull beat "Bang Bang" in round 1, but the girl-power anthem had so many votes, it came back in round 3 as a wildcard, and is now up against Pharrell's "Happy" video.

Ariana's fans are not to be messed with.
